{Upon watching my daughters pick apples} I flow between tides and waves pale amber for this silent moment there were stars a crimson flare of falling planets somewhat like: I, part of your soul, You, part of my breath pausing in tones the orchards are full the world still I have found the child again inside smiling captured a moment among the edge of age It was rainy yesterday -- but I could not remember I have my picture of heart that only river and wind could witness dipped in shallows if they touch me this way I am never alone ~~ For Tyler Alexa and Alacia Grace How you stir my heart with love 2004 ~~**~~ le vent chante avec le calme doux calme de nuit sien beauté sur mes lèvres ~~**~~ |

"I have found the child again inside smiling captured a moment among the edge of age It was rainy yesterday -- but I could not remember I have my picture of heart that only river and wind could witness dipped in shallows if they touch me this way I am never alone" What a loving gift for your children Lauren. They do have a way of bringing out our inner child. Lovely lovely...so gently spoken. Love ya pretty lady~

I have my picture of heart that only river and wind could witness dipped in shallows if they touch me this way I am never alone ======================== No matter what inspires you...your pen only writes with exquisite ink. What a beautiful poem this is L-girlie.  |

"I have found the child again inside smiling captured a moment among the edge of age It was rainy yesterday -- but I could not remember I have my picture of heart that only river and wind could witness dipped in shallows if they touch me this way I am never alone" this i slovely.I have never written poetry for my children exceptthe journal I kept when pregnant with my first (it was a school assignment - independent study in creative writing in college) and have always admired peopelwho did...very nice. |
